This Saturday 21-year-old Chrissy Wallace will make history if she and her father, as planned, race against each other in the Camping World Truck Series race at Talladega Superspeedway. Chrissy and Mike Wallace would become the first father-and-daughter combination to race in a national-level event in NASCAR’s 62-year history. "Hopefully, I’ll wind up beating him," Chrissy told reporters. The younger Wallace has some skills. She has competed in six Truck races and was the first womandriver to win a Late Model race at Hickory, N.C., Motor Speedway. She comes from racing royalty, and counts Tony Stewart among her mentors. Also, she’s pretty easy on the eyes.
